I am guessing that 圎nviro is causing some of the strange behaviour I reported with my fps so I might uninstall and test without it. I read there is a shader that you can install that fixes this but gives you lower resolution clouds or you can revert back to 圎nviro 1.04 to avoid issues. When you turn it off, it jumps back to 34fps. Leaving the 圎nviro lower atmosphere on also decreases the fps from 34 to 17 (again no matter where you fly).

If you leave it on, you get a wall of fog surrounding the aircraft which makes it largely unplayable. I also noticed that 圎nviro is causing strange behavior with the lower atmosphere turned on and off in the 圎nviro options. Strangely the fps didn't increase once I was away from the payware area.

With my 1080 GTX and i76700k 4.5Ghz, I was hovering around 34fps over payware airports (e.g. I am not sure yet if it is placebo but it appears that for me anyway the shimmering that was present with HDR turned on is somewhat diminished (but still slightly annoying when compare to how good AA is with HDR off). Regarding performance.I had updated 圎nviro and attempted to get it to work in VR using the 'trick' of first pointing your headset at the sky. We are so close to these different factors coming together to give us a complete experience but it just needs a little more polish to make it a trouble free plug'n'play experience. I can't wait until it all works properly in VR (especially having to pretty much do voodoo to get 圎nviro to work in VR).

Added to this I had World Traffic v3 running and was circling around EIDW in my Baron just watching planes land. I flew at sunset with overcast conditions over EIDW (Dublin) and it was breathtaking. Firstly I should add that when I got Flyinside, XP 11.10 and 圎nviro to work together, the result was hands down my best ever simming experience. Having read that Flyinside is now updated to work with X-Plane 11.10 b6, I updated both (and 圎nviro) and had my first Oculus Rift experience last night with the new updates.
